TOE MORNING OREGONIAN, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 3Q. 19 1C. 1 1 GEO. G. BUNNELL SEEKS SPEAKERSHIP Clackamas Entrant Thrusts Candidacy Into Thick of . Vote-Gathering. , POLICIES ARE SET FORTH Aspirant for Speaker of House Is Undismayed by Opponents Lead and Announces Stand for ' Strict Prohibition. Another candidate, all of a sudden, has projected himself into the ra.ee for Speaker of the House in the coming Legislature. The latest entrant ia George C. Brownell, of Clackamas County, who formally announced his candidacy yesterday. Mr. Brownell jumps into the thick of things at what most candidates would consider rather an inauspicious mo ment. One of his rivals for Speaker, Robert K. Stanfield, of Stanfield, has just an nounced that he has 40 votes pledged, which is nine more than are necessary to elect. Another rival, Louis E. Bean, of Eugene, lays claim to 22 votes, and is plugging hard to add to the list. Neither of these claims appears to daunt Mr. Brownell in the least. Mr. Bean Is Hopeful. "While in Portland yesterday Mr. Bean declared that he had just re ceived a letter from E. J. Goode, of the Multnomah County delegation, pledging his support to Bean. "I am unqualifiedly for you to the end," said Mr. Goode in his letter. Mr. Stanfield has been credited with eight of the 12 members of the Multnomah County delegation, with Goode and Laurgaard classed as doubtful. Mr. Bean said he would have Mr. Laurgaard's vote also. "My campaign Is progressing very satisfactorily," he ?aid. "I have much more support than I am given credit for having. An at tempt has been made by my opponent to stampede legislators to him, which has swung over some votes, but I have more pledges now than he has." Two Deny Support to Any. Herbert Gordon, who is Mr. Bean's representative in Portland, said he had received a telegram from George T. M'illett, another member of the Mult nomah delegation who is now in New York, saying he was not pledged to anybody. A. H. Burton, Joint Representative from Multnomah and Clackamas coun ties, who has been considered a sup porter of Mr. Bean, said last night that lie wanted it understood that he was not pledged to anybody. He said if prohibition should become an issue of the Speakership contest he would be for the prohibition candidate. Inasmuch as both Mr. Bean and Mr. Stanfield. in response to inquiry from the Union Dry Committee, have gone positively on record as favoring a strong measure to carry into effect the bone-dry prohibition amendment, with men on the liquor committees who are in sympathy with prohibition, it doesn't uppear likely that prohibition will Le en issue so far as the contest is con ccri. jd. Stand for Irys Is Strong. Mr Brownell, in his declaration, of candidacy for Speaker, also comes out -strongly for enforcement of the bone- dry prohibition amendment. He de clares himself as unqualifiedly in favor of curtailment of expenditures and enforcement to the letter of the tax limitation amendment. His statement follows in full: I have made up my mind to become s candidate for Speaker of the House of Rep resentatives this coming session. Not be cause I am hungry for this honor and dis tinction. As a matter of fact, my reason, above all things. Is because I want to see certain issues that are now before the people of this state carried into effect this coming session. In the first place, I am a Republican, and unless the Legislatures keeps Its pledges Jn certain paramount issues wo have no future as a party in this state, and two years from now we will elect a Democratic Governor and a Democratic United States Fenator. We now have two members of the United States Senate, bo :h Democrats from & Republican state and put there by Re publican votes, representing- a Republican t ate, supporting a ' tariff for revenue only' tolicy, which is destructive of the material' iterests of this state. Issues Are Considered. These Issues cannot he jug-gled with. They are, first: A "bone-dry" prohibition law; pecond, our pledges for retrenchment and abolition and consolidation of commissions; und enforcing the tax limitation adopted by the people. Unless this programme is ad hered to by the Legislature and a sincere and earnest effort for economy and reduced taxation is made the Republican party will be put out of business two years hence. I am satisfied that an effort is being made by certain banking interests in Port land and other interests in other parts of this state to organize this Legislature with el direct purpose of over-riding the people's wishes and expressed at the ballot box, ps well as to over-ride the pledges of the leaders of the party in this state, as well bs those made upon the stump and in the newspapers two years ago and repeated in this last campaign, to-wit : Economy, re duced taxation and abolishment of commis eions. As I view it. there Is no present inten tion in certain quarters to observe the man date of the people as to tax limitation. Tax Increases Are Opposed. The candidates for Speaker already in the field, while they are excellent gentlemen in 'very way, come from counties demanding increased appropriations. normal schools, etc.. the state to guarantee interest on ir riif.ition bonds, and will by the very nature of their association, environment and local Sty, be compelled to join for increased ap propriations, thereby overthrowing the tax limitation amendment to the constitution of this stat. I am in favor of fair and just appropria tiont to support our schools and instltu t ions, but I am opposed to increasing the tax burdens a single dollar, and favor a reduction where It can be made without destroying the efficiency of any school or institution. The people are demanding and will hold he Republican party of this state to a ptriet account, unless we stand for economy ud a lower tax rate. AVonderful Resources Cited. The time has come when we have got to cut our clothes according to the cloth. We pre a state of wonderful resources and yet today we have practically no manufacturing industries. What we need are factories, in dustries and payrolls and good roads. I base my candidacy for Speaker upon these issues, hereby pledging myself to the people of this state that if the power is placed in my hands to organize the House of Representatives it will be so organized that this programme will be forced through and all legislation that is antagonistie to these issues will never go through or be passed. That I will stand for what Is fair and just, but under no circumstances will I permit, if elected Speaker of the House of Representatives to be organized in- such way as to thwart the expressed will of the people of this state and nullify the pledges that were made by the candidates asking lor the support of the people two years ago and during the present campaign. Election Held Immaterial. My election is immaterial, what Is Im portant Is the passage of laws that will carry out tho people's will as represented by the issues referred to. There will certainly be a fine time In Salem this Winter if there is any organized effort for legislation antagonistic to the above issues. I fully realize that it will very hard for Die to be elected upon a programme of this character, knowing that practically every of f i -e-holder and chair-warmer now on the payroll in this state will be against me.

Representa tives who stand faithful to this programme at the coming session and work in sin cerity and in good faith to carry out the people s will and reduce our tax rate are the srentlemen who will be in the saddle two years from now, and the Individuals who oppose this programme and stanrf tot an organization of the House favoring in creased appropriations, laws to permit the issuance of bonds for irrigation purposes, the interest to be secured and guaranteed by the state, and adhering to the mainte nance of the tax-eating commissions now In existence, will be out of politics and out of business, in a political sense, two years from now.

WHO WERE PROMINENT IN THANKSGIVING YESTERDAY. 4 r NEEDY ARE CHEERED Onaway Campfire Girls Help Thanksgiving Work. FLOWERS SENT TO SICK Rain Kails to Dampen Spirits of Ardent Workers Wlio Spread Gifts Bounteously Even at Self-Sacrifice. Good cheer went forth yesterday in the company of little girls, who, with the young people's societies, and with men and women who either individu ally or with churches and organiza tions gladdened with plenty the homes of the poor and sick. The little home with its many children and lack of food, the homes of the aged and the rooms of the sick were not forgotten. The orphans in the baby homes re ceived extra goodies from outsiders and ever and ever so many things that make Thanksgiving real were done, not, however, without efforts. Tor months some of tho societies have been busy raising money for the occasion and soliciting foods and fruits for the day. Onuwny Campfire Olrls) Aid. Prominent among the younger givers were the Onaway Campfire Girls, who under the chaperonage of their guar dian, Mrs. Agnes Duck, went from the Rose City Park School yesterday after noon with 24- baskets, which they took to various parts of the city. These girls have 10 families to whom they give regular food supplies, but yester day their number of beneficiaries were more than double.d. One little miss, who came clear from Jefferson High School in the rain, car ried a huge tin pail that stood higher than her knees and a large basket, and smiled her merriest in spite of the fact that it was cold and bleak. Nor did tho rain dampen the spirits of any they had the genuine "giving" SDirit and were as happy as larks, for they had worked hard and not only broutrht food and good mines irora home and the neighbors, but contrib uted from their own money, preferring to deny themselves many a movie and frill that they might gladden others. Portland Churches Lend Hand. In the group that left the school yes- terdav were Mrs. Duck, and Misses Ellen Caw. Beatrice Michelet, Georgi ana Cleek. Mareraret Lewis. Annie Chamberlain, Maxine Stone. Hilda Hen derson. Lorena Chambers, i,sther wig Erins. Dorrls Lake. Alice Clark, Jessie Larson and Ethel Michelet. Manv of the Portland churches car ried foods and flowers and fruit to their various institutions and almost all remembered the sick of their par ishes. The Women's Society of the First Presbyterian Church went from the church yesterday with fruit for the sick of their congregation and for many others, who were ill or bereaved. A happy affair today will be tne ain- ner at the orphans Home in ouuui Portland, that will be given for them by the Ladies' Relief Society. Y. W. C. A. to Entertain Girls. The Tounc "Women's Christian Asso ciation will make a specialty of their Thankatrivine dinner for the girls and women away from home. The Young Men's Christian Association will have a. nimilar dinner for their boys and men who have not people or intimate friends here. Thanksgiving givers did not forget the Boys and Girls' Aid Society. Bas kets kept coming all day yesterday and munv. flowers and much fruit found its way to boys and girls, so that they mav have as bounteous a feast today as any. The Salvation Army remem- hared many families with extra things v nlihriiiph thev are concen tratins their efforts in making a big phristmas for the needy. Sunday school organizations and aid nHotles an well as individuals will visit the hospitals of the city this mni-ninr with fruits and flowers. All tnnA onH mnnev received by the Episco pal churches today will bo sent to the Good Samaritan nospuai. Pacific Coast Shipping Notes. COOS BAT, Or.. Nov. 2a. (Special. The steam Bchooner A. M.

GOBDNADQ TOWED IN Crippled Vessel Is Coming to Portland for Repairs. CRAFT REACHES ASTORIA Master Reports Breaking of Tail Shaft Left Scliooner Helpless Ofr Tillamook Rock Wal iula Makes Rescue. ASTORIA. Or.. Nov. 29. (Special.) The crippled steam schooner Coronado was brought Into port this morning by the tug Waliula. Captain Bruun, master of the vessel, reported that 1:30 yesterday afternoon, when about eight miles off Tillamook Rock, the tail shaft broke in the engine-room close to the flange. It is believed the propeller is still in place. The sea was comparatively smooth at the time of the accident and although the Coronado drifted helplessly for a few hours, she was in no immediate danger. A wireless message was sent ashore and at 5:30 last evening the tug picked up the disabled craft. The Coro nado will be towed to Portland, prob ably tomorrow to go on a drydock for repalrx. She will then proceed to Aber deen to load lumber. The vessel is leaking slightly and It is supposed the shaking which she re ceived when the tail shaft broke opened some of the seams. As the schooner Geo. E. Billings goes on the Oregon drydock today for re caulklng, which work will be handled by Joseph Supple, the Coronado will tow to the St. Johns drydock of the Port of Portland. Manager E. 'vV'. 'W.ight. of the Port, was at Astoria when the Coronado was brought inside by the tug Waliula. Cap tain Johnson, so drydocking details were arranged. The probabilities are that if it is found the wheel was lost, a new one will be ordered from San Francisco. Drydocks have been in demand of late and while it Is unusual for a good sized deepwater vessel to he hauled out on the ordinary ways at river yards. Joseph Supple proposes to have old Lightvessel No. BO on the cradle at his vard tomorrow. It has been decided to install two gasoline engines of 110 horsepower each in the vessel to fit her for the Mexican freight and pas senger trade and the shafts, propellers and other gear will be placed while she is out of water.

TUAXKSGlVIN'Ci DRAWS FLEET Pilot Tom Cranz Kinds Tate Has Again Cheated Him of Home Feast. Towboats began to gather in the har bor last night that the crews might spend Thanksgiving in port, some of them at homes, while those without family ties will dine aboard and pass the day as they have holidays in the past, resting or visiting shows. One individual whose plans went awry was Captain Tom Crrn?e. pilot for the Union Oil Company's fleet, who laments that in 12 years he had spent Christmas away from home and he planned at least to be in front of his own fireplace this thanksgiving, let the tanker Oleum left the Golden Gate so she was due off the river last night and Captain Tom faces a dreary day on the bridge, bringing her from As toria. The only consoling feature was that the steward would no doubt pro vide one of the National birds for din ner. The Custom-House will be closed today and the beach generally deserted as there is little rush work necessltat ing that men labor. !

"And still they go." remarked a mariner yesterday on hearing a i5an Francisco report that the American Hawaiian line had sold the steamers Virginian and Missourlan. which, if true, means 11 liners have been lost to the famous American fleet since the advent of the war, though one of them, the Columbian, went to the bottom off the Spanish coast recently, not being under another flag, as are others sold.
